Woke NPR boss squirms and backtracks in Congress as she's grilled about call for whites to pay reparations
Story by Laura Parnaby For Dailymail.Com

NPR boss Katherine Maher has squirmed in Congress while being quizzed about a call she made for white people to 'pay reparations' on social media.

The 41-year-old former tech tycoon was grilled by Republican Rep Brandon Gill about a post she made on Twitter, now known as X, on January 20, 2020.
 
'Yes, the North, yes all of us, yes America. Yes, our original collective sin and unpaid debt. Yes,

reparations. Yes, on this day,' Maher wrote in the post, which is still visible.

Maher initially denied making the comment while being probed by Gill, but after the lawmaker read her tweet aloud, she claimed it had a different meaning.

The former Wikipedia boss said she didn't 'believe that was a reference to fiscal reparations' -  prompting Gill to push for clarification on 'what kind of reparations' she did mean.
